The cold wind blew in everyone's hearts, and this night, Xianyang felt deep fear from the inside out.

Since the return of the Ying Zheng crown ceremony, everything he has done is unpredictable.

Some shrewd people guessed this result, but they didn't expect Yingzheng's speed to be so fast, and they didn't give people a chance to refute at all.

From the Qin Palace Banquet, to the Crown Ceremony, to the Xianyang Rebellion, this series of actions are all driven by an invisible hand. Whoever can benefit in the end is because it was that person who planned all this. Judging from the current situation, Ying Zheng will gain the most because he can take all the power in the palm of his hand.

But this extreme method damaged the national strength of the Qin State, and the Qin Palace was destroyed, 10,000 garrisons died, and the mansions of many ministers were ransacked. Lü Buwei, Changpingjun and others couldn't believe that Yingzheng did it, and even Chang Yu, who was imprisoned in the cell, shouted that it was impossible.

No one knows better than Chang Yu that Ying Zheng cherishes the Guards, even if there are more people who die, Ying Zheng will not sacrifice the Guards. Ying Zheng may be involved, but the main planner must be someone else.

When the royal car arrived, everyone welcomed Ying Zheng into the big tent in the army, and saw Ying Zheng holding Ying Ai's hand and sitting on the main seat together. Zhongli, Qianzi, and Qiankui stood behind the two, staring at everyone in the big tent. They knew that Yingzheng was going to kill a lot of people tonight, so that those people and dogs would jump off the wall in a hurry and make any disobedient moves against Yingzheng, so they would naturally keep an eye on them.

Everyone waited for Ying Zheng to speak, and Ying Zheng also looked at everyone here carefully, and did not speak eagerly. Changping Jun nodded to a general, and the man stood up and said, "King Qiyu, this is a garrison barracks, and women should not be brought in......"

Before he finished speaking, Ying Zheng said lightly: "This king has not yet spoken, there is no distinction between respect and inferiority, and it should be dealt with by military law." The Praetorian Guards listened to the order and killed him. ”

The Praetorian Guards, who were lying in ambush around the big tent, immediately walked in and took the panicked general out of the big tent and executed him on the spot. From walking in to going out, it was only a few breaths, and the Praetorian Guards acted in unison, and they only listened to Yingzheng's orders. As for why that person was killed, Ying Zheng didn't give any explanation at all, but just said in a high-sounding voice, 'There is no distinction between respect and inferiority'.

This drastic method shocked everyone.

The people in the big tent are all frightened, this is to establish the prestige of the king. Sure enough, Ying Zheng has become pro-government, and it has become different from the past.

Ying Zheng said: "The so-called Ci is not in charge of the army, the main general has not yet spoken, but the partial general has spoken in advance, so as to spoil my Great Qin military style." How many more such people are there? It seems that the garrison camp is a big problem. ”

"Originally, there were 30,000 soldiers here, but in a battle outside the city, more than 20,000 people were lost. In the past, I didn't come, because I thought that I believed in the courage of the battle, but now I can't, the military style has been corrupted so much, it seems that it will not work if it is not rectified. ”

"Pass on the king's order, deprive Changping Jun of his military power, and let the partial general Yingcheng take over. In addition, 10,000 veterans of the guards were transferred from Yongcheng to bring the old with the new and retrain the soldiers and horses here. Only in this way is the real garrison barracks, and no one will say that there is a distinction between the old and the new garrisons. ”

No one could have thought that the first person to open the knife was not Chang Yu, but Changping Jun.

Changpingjun also knew that his position as commander would be deprived, but he didn't expect it to come so soon. Now that the king's order has been issued, he also stood up and said: "The ministers have the order." ”

took out the seal of the commander of the army, handed it to Yingcheng, and stood aside and stopped talking.

Ying Zheng also said: "When doing things in the army, there are clear rewards and punishments, and Li Xin obeys orders. ”

Li Xin stood up and said: "The minister is here. ”

Ying Zhengyan said: "You rushed to the outside of Xianyang City within the specified time, and blocked all roads, and you didn't lose much. In order to solve the Xianyang Rebellion, he did it himself, and he should be the first to do it. From today onwards, this king will promote you to be the deputy commander of the garrison army, and assist Yingcheng in renovating the garrison barracks. ”

Li Xinxi said: "The last general listens to the order, King Xie." ”

Li Xin returned to his place, his heart full of joy. He has been a general in the army for many years, and he has worked very hard, relying on Lu Buwei in the past, and then under the account of Changping Jun, even if he has become the defender of Yucheng, there is still a Mengwu on his head. Being transferred around, he rarely had the opportunity to independently command the army to fight, and many great achievements were led by the people above, which made him very unwilling, and the speed of climbing was too slow.

Great Qin was promoted the fastest with military merits, and Li Xin was used to representing the big tent, and he was tired of the defending generals for a long time. Now he is assigned to the garrison battalion, although he is also subservient to Yingcheng, but he knows how important it is to him. Ying Zheng came from the Praetorian Guard, and he was Ying Zheng's descendant, and he could also please Ying Zheng under him.

What's more, Yingcheng will return to the Praetorian Guard sooner or later, as long as he survives for a few years, the Guard Barracks will be his sooner or later. This is no better than other troops, if there is any turmoil in Xianyang, the garrison camp will enter Xianyang to quell the chaos. In the fight against other countries, the garrison battalion is the first unit to support, as long as it is here, it is not afraid of no war.

Many of the generals looked at them with envy, and the garrison camp was close to Xianyang, and obtained more resources than any other army. Now unified with the number of Yongcheng, there can be no less opportunities to fight in the future, and the war together is the shortest way to earn military merits.

But some people were unhappy, and they saw Lu Buwei stand up and say: "Please be cautious, the soldiers of Yongcheng are the strongest troops guarding the frontier, and they should not be moved lightly." Yongcheng is a line of defense for my Great Qin, and it is also the burial place of the previous kings. ”

Hearing this, Li Xin's face was full of displeasure, Ying Zheng's decision made him very satisfied, with 10,000 veterans to lead new soldiers, this is the best way to train soldiers. Generals command battles, no matter how strong their skills are, they must also have soldiers under them who can really fight. Counting on the soldiers here, Li Xin couldn't see hope, especially the battle outside Xianyang City, 10,000 against 30,000, a few charges killed and lost their armor, no one wanted to bring such soldiers.

Yingcheng was also very unhappy, and stood up and said: "In the battle of Xianyang, there was a lot of loss of soldiers, so let the veterans bring the new soldiers, so that a well-established army can be built in a very short time." In the past, people said that the soldiers outside Xianyang City were all children of rich and noble families, full of delicate spirit, with the false title of garrison, and their skills were far from the soldiers of Yongcheng. ”

"In today's view, that's true. Since you dare to call the garrison guards, you should conform to the army name of the garrison guards. What's more, the relocation of 10,000 veterans from Yongcheng will not cause much loss to the defense of Yongcheng. After this chaos, Xianyang must form an army faster, so as not to covet the capital of our Great Qin. ”

Lu Buwei still shook his head and said: "If it doesn't conform to the rules of the ancestors, the soldiers of Yongcheng can't come out lightly, so they can't come." ”

Ying Cheng said angrily: "Since I am the commander of the garrison, I have to be responsible for my subordinates, which is also what Zuo Cheng taught me over the years." At present, the barracks are full of less than 10,000 people, and most of them are wounded, and it is impossible to recover in a short time. If there are no veterans to teach, what is the difference between recruiting recruits and city guards? ”

"Lord Lu Xiang, in his position, planning his own affairs, and not understanding the affairs of the army, it is better not to interfere. Lord Changping-kun, please come out and say a few words, we need veterans to fill in. ”

Changping Jun sighed: "Yingcheng is right, Lord Lu Xiang, don't annoy everyone anymore." This time I fought with Chang Yu, so that I had the trust of the king, 30,000 people can't beat 10,000 people, if Yingcheng and others lead such a soldier again, I can't explain to the top or the bottom. Since others are better than us, we must study hard and learn the true combat style of the garrison. ”

"And Yingcheng can become the commander of the garrison, which has been negotiated a long time ago. Now there are only 8,000 soldiers in the army, and they are lost in my hands, even if I leave office now, I can't let the young people clean up this mess. ”

Yingcheng, Li Xin, and most of the generals in the big tent said in unison: "What the adults said is right. ”

With the loss of more than 20,000 men, the barracks are no longer able to become a full-fledged force, and if they are not thoroughly reorganized, their morale will be low, and they will not be able to cope with any battle at all. To lead such a soldier, it is better to go to other troops as a general.

Ying Zheng waved his hand and said, "Master Zhong, I am sure that Xianyang needs a garrison to defend it. The matter has been agreed with my mother, and after dawn, 10,000 garrisons will be stationed in the barracks. Don't forget, this is the garrison barracks, since they are also garrisons, the simple internal change of defense does not violate the ancestral teachings. ”

Lü Buwei wanted to say something, but he heard the generals say in unison: "Follow the king's will." ”

Lu Buwei was so angry that his fingers trembled, but he heard Zhong Li say coldly: "Lord Lu Xiang, Gongzi's decision did not violate my Great Qin Ancestral Training. If you still have to oppose it strongly, you are disrespectful to your son, and don't forget your identity. You are the minister, and the prince is the master. ”

Zhongli didn't say the rest of the words, but everyone could hear it, if Lu Buwei objected again, it would be to force Zhongli to make a move on him. Zhongli is the swordswoman of Daqin, if she wants to kill anyone, she won't talk nonsense with you at all, she is someone who even the Empress Dowager Xia Ji dares to assassinate.

Lü Buwei was completely chilled, mobilizing 10,000 garrisons was a trivial matter, but the real role was obvious to everyone, that is, Ying Zheng wanted to completely stabilize his throne. With 10,000 tigers and wolves sitting outside the city, few people in the court dare to disobey the government, and the interests of the powerful families will be greatly impacted, which will make many people panic.

But Ying Zheng insisted on doing so, he saw what these people with soldiers needed, this is a military camp, not a court. Ren Lü Buwei was full of complaints, and he couldn't make these rude soldiers believe him, and even Changping Jun felt that it should be so. The rules of the ancestors are dead, people are alive, and now that he has lost so many people, he will be punished himself, and if he fights against Yingzheng again, it is estimated that he will not see the sun tomorrow.

I didn't see Ying Zheng coming, he cut down a general, and the blood stains outside the tent have not dried yet, and if you oppose it at this time, you will definitely force Ying Zheng to attack you.

They also saw that Ying Zheng suddenly came to the barracks to control the military power here. Yingcheng is his person, Li Xin has also been promoted, and there are still 10,000 veterans available in his hands, which is a real benefit, and only a fool will object.

These generals, who have been in the army all year round, want to earn greater military merits, and whoever stands in their way, they will be the first to oppose it. There were even a few generals who showed unkind eyes to Lü Buwei. It's good that this Lu Xiang handles government affairs well, and he also comes to meddle in the affairs of the army, especially after he comes, he often quarrels with Changping Jun, which has made them unhappy.

Now that Yingzheng is exporting, he has to obstruct it, and even provokes Zhongli to reprimand. They were all familiar with Zhongli's personality, and when Changpingjun was not in the barracks, Zhongli often came here to teach them martial arts. Every time there is a big change in Xianyang, Zhongli will come, and her words are more effective than any general.

The money and food in the garrison camp are more abundant than the troops in any place, mainly because Zhongli can make Mi Chen tilt the resources. Now even she is dissatisfied with Lu Buwei, not to mention these generals who are mixed in the army. This is also the reason why Changping Jun is not on Lu Buwei's side, no one knows Zhongli's horror better than him.

Ying Zheng's control of military power is a foregone conclusion.
